Naos III was a frigid cold moon with the bare minimum of what most civilized people call a habitable zone. A simple glance over the poorly maintained pre-fab buildings on every street proved how difficult life had been and continued to be. With heavy snow and freezing temperatures, the moon could only sustain small pockets of wildlife, and even then, most were hunted into oblivion save for what survived in the dangerous mountains in the distance.
But every far-flung moon had its legends, beasts so terrible or elusive that they lurked in the shadows for decades. Only for the air of mystery to resurface once in a while as new traces were found and reported. It wasn't entirely clear what was out there, some claimed a ferocious beast with talons the size of horses, others boasted it surely was a wyrm as big as a city block. In any case, tracking down and dispatching the creature would surely bring reward from the townsfolk, let alone the prestige of the kill.
Sigtryggr had heard the whispers and quickly arrived on the scene dressed in the fresh furs of his people. The cold bristling air blew through the street and against his beard, particles of snow catching themselves among it. From the spaceport, he quickly darted for the nearby cantina, both for the comforting warmth the bountiful furnace provided, but also to scope out his possible competition and take one last shot for the road.
